Ducati, Suzuki, Honda, Kawazaki, Yamaha Motorcycles...What do you recommend?
I am planning to buy a motorcycle and I would appreciate any input from experts on the matter or a person who had experience with any of these brands with regards to:
- performance & handling
- frequency of maintenance required
- adequacy of maintenance service by the dealer
- average periodic maintenance service cost
- availability of spare parts at the dealer
- resale value
I am highly interested in the Ducati 848 evo 2012 so I would appreacite a more detailed advice on this motorbike.
Thank you.
SUZUKU IS MY FAVORITE
Agree with everything he said, but there are roads and breakfast runs where you can get a bike to its potential. Also you have Losail which does trackdays. They also get pro's from time to time to teach you how to ride fast...safely.
Drop a Ducati and you looking at a QR20k repair bill. The fairing alone is Qr2000.
Best service and parts availabillity is Suzuki, and Honda also has a good reputation.
Best advise is go to Starbucks on Friday morning, around 7h30am and go talk to the riders there -expats, and they ride all the brands, and they are good at it!
Enjoy
